The Coach House is set within the beautiful Derbyshire countryside, providing you with three suites and a spacious living and kitchen area. The property is perfect for large gatherings such as reunions, family events and stag/hen dos. We currently sleep up to 17 guests however, additional sleeping arrangements may be possible when discussed upon enquiry. The unique layout and style of the property provides flexibility for almost all group types and size.

There is ample car parking to the front of the property and a large internal courtyard offering a large gas BBQ and lots of seating to enjoy the sunshine.

The Parlour offers the ideal environment for groups to socialise, eat and relax together, along with an additional toilet and large commercial kitchen. Groups have hired professional chefs to cater for those special occasions too.

We are situated on the edge of the Peak District National Park and surrounded by beautiful countryside. Situated away from busy roads, overlooking rolling hills, and backing on to a beautiful forest with small brooks and bridges it doesn't get more picturesque than this. A short drive will take you to bustling market towns, or to the grounds of some of Britain's most famous stately homes, or to the epicenter of the industrial revolution. We are well connected to major transport infrastructure and located centrally making us an ideal and accessible location for reunions from across the country. For those groups seeking out more adventure and exhilaration, there is no shortage of extreme sports and activities near by.

About Kate

My husband and I moved into the property in December 2013 with our two small children, it offers a lovely opportunity for me to work from home and a lovely environment for our young family to grow up in. It has been recently sympathetically renovated to include modern comforts and we have loved the challenge, privileged to have found our forever home, and really hope guests enjoy it as much as we do.

Kate purchased this Farmhouse in 2013

Why Kate chose Lea

We fell in love with The Coach House instantly, it is full of charm and character, and the renovations which have bought it up to date offering modern comforts have been done sympathetically so you can appreciate the original intension and use of the building. It was the 'Toy Farm' for the John Smedley Estate which was auctioned off in the 1970s, although the factory and outlet is still going at the other end of the village- so if you like fine knit wear its worth a visit.
We particularly love the Courtyard, all of the suites and the Parlour enjoy access off of this area, and it offers a fantastic, private and secure space for groups to enjoy.
The village of Lea is a true credit to the English Countryside, its full of lovely people and properties and offers a lots of lovely walks, with a great local pub to end up in.

What makes this Farmhouse unique

The Views, the setting within the environment, the community, the courtyard, the character and charm, its unique layout, the quiet quaint village maintaining excellent links to main roads and train stations.

Lovely large property very suitable for our mixed family party. Large practical communial area and well equipped kitchen. Immaculate well equipped apartments upstairs, with lovely modern kitchens and bathrooms, offering privacy if needed. Kate was very helpful both before and on our arrival. The area offered us a variety of activities that weekend and the sunny weather meant we could spend time as well in the large sunny courtyard. A safe place for the children to play along with a grassy area nearby. We even had regular visits from some local hens and the sheep and horses next door were another interest. One suggestion for improvement would be some updating of the communial and kitchen areas. As these obviously are well used and they do show a contrast to the immaculate apartments upstairs. We had a most enjoyable time in this lovely property.

What a wonderful property. Plenty of space and every comfort. The large lounge and kitchen was perfect entertaining a big group whilst the individual units were perfect for retreat from the family party. Well appointed, beautifully decorated and the owners close at hand if you had any quieries. The outside courtyard was also good for entertaing if the weather allowed. I cannot recommend more highly.

We had a large group and stayed for a weekend of walking and relaxing. The coach house is surrounded by beautiful countryside and the kitchen/entertaining area was perfect for a large group with what appears to be a commercial sized kitchen. The pub a few doors down is really nice as well, and Kate the host was polite and responded quickly to any questions we had.
